Re: [Nexus] HALO 178: Mia clementia denor esto
[Lab > Hallway]
Pesty heard something about a new leader!
Of course, she wasn't paying enough attention to remember if anyone mentioned exactly who the new leader was, but she might as well find out now!
She comes out of the lab with a small screwdriver tucked behind her ear, the tool-pockets of her labcoat full of wrenches and Almond Joys, still holding something that looks like the stock of something at least vaguely gunlike, although without all the necessary... gun bits at the other end.
She trots down the hall for Tobias's... ex-office, wondering who the new boss is. BR? Someone from GLOG? Her?
She doesn't want it to be her, and decides that if she finds herself sitting in the Big Important Chair she'll just have to demand that she step down.🔜 🆒️ 🚰

Re: [Nexus] HALO 178: Mia clementia denor esto
He is okay with dangerous. However Valcario leers a little at the large computer. He was a steamtech specialist, not a cybertech user! He couldn't hack such a thing. He was gonna have to get creative for this. Step one: determine if computer has artificial intelligence without alerting said computer to his true intent. Steps two through everything else pretty much differed right after that.
He walks in and says
"Howdy there, computer, how are you doing on this fine day, might I ask?"
What? If there was an AI on it, then it was just polite, if there wasn't, then he was fine anyways, because he just spoke to an empty room.

Ori nods once, and starts to pray. The revivapoof, which is pink, of course, should go ahead and happen whenever.
"Even if you did, and she's sworn some sort of grudge against you, I'm fairly certain she'd be willing to work with you. Especially since you do seem to have HALO's best interest at heart. But yes. I think that's BR in a nutshell.
Uhhhh. Nai's undead and wears bandages all over his face. I'll scrounge up pictures of everyone else for you. They'll probably be around here somewhere, and if not, I can just take some pictures."
"Oh, I'm all right." The computer replies, before falling silent.Spoiler: Quotes

Re: [Nexus] HALO 178: Mia clementia denor esto
Ok, this would actually be easier than actually trying to fiddle with it, since he couldn't hack to save his life, but he could talk anyone's ear off and lie like a pro. All he'd have to do is convince the computer to show him the data files on Caelynn. Which could be easy or hard. If it was easy, all he'd have to do is request it as if it was a normal thing to do. If it was hard, it'd be hidden behind a bunch of clearance and security measures and such. Being polite however has gotten him this far however, so why not keep trying it?
"I do beg your help, computer, can I please see the files on one Huntress named Caelynn?"

"No. No I don't think so. I'm ignored for months on end," the voice now seems to be coming from behind him. Specifically, from a very lifelike looking woman with bright blue hair. "no one ever bothers to come say hi, no one gives me anything to do besides, you know, keeping the life support running, as well as every other little odd and end that needs doing to maintain the place.
Though if you could talk to me, keep me company, and tell me why, I could maybe be willing to help." With that, she crosses her arms, and taps her foot slowly.Spoiler: Quotes

Oh this will be easy. He smiles, pulls down a chair, sits down and begins talkng.
"Well then Miss Computer, if this'll be a conversation, then I think it be right and proper to tell each other our names then before continuing. M'names Sheriff Lockston. What name be the fine company before me, might I ask?"

Infirmary => Hallway
"Alright, we're done here. Ark, next on the agenda is saying hello to people and getting to know faces. Therlynn, Earios-or-however-you-pronounce-that-name, it was swell. I hope I never have to do any of this ever again, directly or indirectly. Tell me if you find a real doctor in this place before someone else goes into labor."
Magtok heads for the door, and has every intention of walking past Pesty to just outside his office, where he'll slap a "MagOffice" plaque onto the door. There, that should help anyone out if they're lost and looking for his office. More importantly though, it should help Magtok out later, when he's lost and looking for his office. This place is big and scary and new and he has no idea how he's supposed to find anything.
MagOffice
"That sounds like it could take a while. I suppose I've got nothing but time, though. No apocalypses or evil invading armies coming here or whatever most of the time, from what I've heard. Oh, and speaking of time, you wouldn't happen to know anyone who could make a huge pile of gold coins or some other sort of money, and have it set to dissolve or vanish or whatever after an hour or two, would you? I have this nefarious evil scheme in mind, except it's not evil at all and involves saving a whole bunch of innocent people in one big dramatic hero stunt of goodness."
Heroic counterfeiting, Magtok? Are you sure this is about saving people, and not just some genuinely evil scheme to get yourself a fancy new office chair for free?

[Hallway]
Pesty sees Magtok and wonders if she's supposed to punch him in the face or something.
Maybe later.
Except, according to the plaque, he is now the boss.
Wondering if she has to be evil or at least a jerk now, Pesty decides to create a gun that punches faces.🔜 🆒️ 🚰

Therlynn shakes her head as Magtok leaves, gently rocking her daughter, who, with pitch-black hair and wings, could probably pass as a Sylph baby. She smiles to Eyros and says, "We agreed to name her Lysandra, right?"

[Psi-chosis: Poolside]
"Well, it's good to meet you, Arlem," Leo responds, answering her gesture in kind with a slight bow (not too steep to throw Mr. C off-balance, of course). His headache seems to be subsiding now...Is he getting used to the pain or to the sensation of receiving telepathic messages?
"These 'other things' you mentioned," he repeats inquisitively. "Do you mean...psychokinesis...?" Leo has encountered entities capable of different forms of psychokinesis, or PK, in the past, but he himself has only been able to borrow those abilities on a spiritual channel before. With his telepathic potential exposed, however, he can't help but wonder if he has the knack for other psychic powers as well.

MagOffice - Stuff Happening After Civvy Chat
"No, not really. If you want to keep being a rascally bandit, I'm going to be obligated to go after you, though. Spank the kitty when she's been bad..." Magtok comments suggestively, hands behind his back as he inspects an empty spot on the wall, with his silly smirk hidden just out of sight. Hrm. A photo or some fancy artwork would go nicely right here, probably. A Maggy Lisa, perhaps, or maybe a MagNapoleon on an iron horse.
"I'm going to need that chair in a moment, by the way. Sounds like someone's about to enter the room." That someone being Thalia, of course. I don't know why Magtok doesn't just sit in one of the other two chairs, though. Sure, they don't spin, but an interview with a new member isn't the time or place to be goofing off like that.

Re: [Nexus] HALO 178: Mia clementia denor esto
Ark giggles at that.
that's perfectly fine with me.
She replies,, getting up.
Thalia enters. It may take a while for Magtok to recognize her, with that face looking like it's worn too much to be the face of an 18 year old, that scar on her cheek, the missing pinkie, and of course, the lack of mask and normal outfit.
oh, it's you."Are we living a life that is safe from harm? Of course not, we never are. But that's not the right question. The question is: are we living a life that is worth the harm?"

Re: [Nexus] HALO 178: Mia clementia denor esto
MagOffice - Stuff With Civvy
Magtok blinks. That is a lot of money. He had thought he'd have a bit more time to prepare, maybe divide up the money between three teams of HALO members, but...jeez, now he has to get a MagClone all the way to Skyside as soon as possible! He can't just do the smart thing and ask Civvy to hold off on that and save her god-magicks for later, because apparently according to MagLogic, that would be impolite and ungracious!
The very last thing he can do is let the silly pink-haired girl think she did something silly and inconveniently timed. Even if it'd only take a second to fix the problem, somehow it's the end of the world if Mag complains even a little about it, or asks for her to wait a couple hours to get a team together. Urgh. Honestly Magtok, you're here to lead HALO, not fuss over what pretty pink princesses think of you!
"I'll have another MagClone get right on that. Expect a few new faces on your welcome route after I've saved the day." The cyborg says, without a hint of trepidation, despite the above two paragraphs. He drops the loot into his pockets, and it all just vanishes right away.
"So anyways, that said and done, where would BR be hanging out? He's probably my best bet for finding another veteran here who won't beat me up with my own arm." Magtok meant that as a joke, but he freezes after saying so, and the implications of what he signed himself up for only begins to really settle in now. Oh gods, there's no way he's going to be able to run this place, is there? He ought to just run away, screaming, right here and right now, while he still has some dignity left. His pride will suffer, but there's no way it'll hurt anywhere near as much as what's waiting for him if he insists on sticking with this absurd course of action.
MagOffice - Stuff After Civvy
Magtok steps forward, attempts to immediately snatch the paper out of her hand, and put it down on the desk, where he'll press a bright red rubber stamp down on the paper, before handing it back.
"Easiest decision I'll make today. The armory's down that way. The paper goes in the filing cabinet over there, under 'T'. Put it under Topaz, not Tempest or Thalia, I'm going by last names for people who have them."
The stamp says 'APPROVED', by the way. Of course, Thalia probably could've figured that out on her own, even without looking at the paper.
"Oh, and I don't know all of what happened, but I heard enough from Wall. For what it's worth, I'm sorry that things turned out that way, and that Marcy didn't do the right thing, and stay dead after the last time I killed him."

Re: [Nexus] HALO 178: Mia clementia denor esto
MagOffice - Stuff After Civvy
"Don't worry about missions right now. Make some friends. Find some people to lean on; HALO seems to be a friendly, supportive bunch. That's not just advice, by the way, it's an order. The worst thing to go through something like that, escape, and then have nobody care at all." Magtok certainly sounds like he's speaking from experience, but I doubt he'll be elaborating on that anytime soon. Not to the girl who tried to rob him, and even then, definitely not with Ark in the room. That's not the sort of thing discussed with the pretty but slightly air-headed catgirl who-
Oh. Huh. Magtok never actually needed that chair she was using, did he? Well that's vaguely embarrassing. Oh well.
"Okay, leader business done for now. So far that's...someone who robbed me made a member, someone who tried to burn your face helped with a pregnancy, and my face beaten to pieces by a were-monster-hyena-bat thing in an honor duel. All I have left is restructuring the command hierarchy and stuff, doing more of that stuff with squads, talking with Watch, meeting with Inside, having other-me check the files to see if Civvy's single, sending some people on a mission, finding people qualified to send on that mission, andohdearlordthat'salot." He drops right into his favorite chair, mentally exhausted already. He can see how this sort of work could drain the life out of someone, but it's far too soon to quit now. He has to prove himself asthe Superior Spidermana qualified and competent leader of HALO to himself, HALO's members, and the world.
